Nice going W.

The fruits of our evil labors are coming to bear and now innocent civilians will likely pay for the mistakes made by the leadership (or lack thereof) of our country.

They were coming regardless what we did after 9/11.

Yeah, it is definitely our president's fault, muslim extremists did not harbor any hatred towards the west before Bush took office. (sarcarsm...) Do some research before posting here.

Noel is right. Muslim extremists have been behind bombings a lot longer than Bush has been president. Do you people think they would stop if Bush pulled all our military out of the desert today? If you think so, you are not very educated as to the cause/effect that it takes for the extremists to plot such things as this. Instead of yelling at/against Bush, why not yell at/against the idiots who send these young children out to commit these missions?

What are you saying, Noel? You mean there actually were Muslim extremists before Bush took office? Wow. That's not what St. Cindy Sheehan told me!

@ Noel - where have you been? My question is...why didn't the recons paste the camp and light it up before the kiddy bombers left? Be PROACTIVE!

Too bad we didn't go after where the worst terrorists were instead of Iraq. Now we have more in Iraq AND more in Pakistan, etc.

MI5 and MI6 are aware of homegrown terrorists who have recieved training in Afghanistan and Pakistan. At the last count 2000 individuals of Pakistani descent are being monitored.

Woodhill High Security Prison in Milton Keynes is currently full of these individuals awaiting trial.

There are also 2 juveniles who have recieved this training held at Maidstone Prison

UK security forces are currently on top of the situation, but we have to be lucky everytime. The enemy only has to be lucky once.

Today the Pakistani Minister of Religious Affairs called for Suicide bombings in the UK. With friends like that we don't need to many enemies.

These people have had it out for the US for a long time. This only the begining of a world war 3. The only way they'll be happy is when the whole world blows up.

Afghanistan is where we should have put most of our troops not Iraq. The White House wants to stop the war on terror but they put the troops in the wrong country. Remove the troops from Iraq put them in Afghanistan and get the job done once and for all.

Of course there were NO suicide bombers before Bush took office. Don't be silly. It's all our fault! Everyone knows that.

Propaganda? How can anyone tell the difference? No one took Bin Laden seriously, either. Time to take border security seriously, ya think?

I bet you can't wait for thatday, Jack.

We need more troops in both Afghanistan and Iraq. Both are breeding grounds for terrorist cells.

RE: NOEL -- "Yeah, it is definitely our president's fault, muslim extremists did not harbor any hatred towards the west before Bush took office. (sarcarsm...) Do some research before posting here.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Andyin, I hope that is sarcasm I read in your statement.

Border security is a key to keeping our these people out. They need to closed, today. And anyone here illegally needs to be sent home, no amnesty, no government hand outs. Send them home and close the doors until these threats have at least lessened.

I have always said that we, here in America, have been too lucky for too long to avoid the death squads that we see and hear about in the barbarian world. I truly believe that what happened at 9/11/2001 was only the tip of the iceberg for things to come. Maybe its time to prepare for the future. I mean life after death. Are you ready to meet your maker? The choice is yours. The trip is free to the Heaven but you have to purchase your tickets now. John 3:16.

Yeah it was. There is no one answer that is going to fix the pronblems in the east. don't forget our president is an elected official and half of this country did elect him TWICE

Just remember to thank the left-wing ACLU and those who hold liberal movie stars' political stances above our own government and military leaders when these people are able to sneak into our country and kill innocent American citizens because it's "not nice" to racially profile or tap phones or halt student visas.

Bush had nothing to do with the terrorists wanting to come here. They were here long before he was in office. They hate the Western Idological Influence thats put on their culture. They hate the commercialization of the western culture into their society. Many of these nut jobs are brought up in the religious schools over there and are fed hate by their Imans for years. The money for these schools come from other parts of the Middle East. Semi-stable middle eastern countries throw out their radicals where they move to Pakiastan and other countries without immigration control (hint). Those radicals propagate the hatred even more by wanting to live like they are in the 7th century. If they had their way everyone who was not a Muslim Extremist would have their head put on a stake in their front yard, even children - thats what we are up against. This is not just Bush's problem, its all of ours. Don't under-estimate them, they really want to kill you or anyone they can.

Word has it. They have been disguising themselves as Mexicans to sneak across the border.

All the more reason to put up a fence between us and Mexico. All this PC crap has to stop as well. If the people who want to kill us are young Muslims, that's who we should restrict from entering the US for any reason.

Anyone who thinks that "we" are responsible for these pathetic death dealing nut jobs, is a person who argues his point with the certainty of a moron. I would suggest that we just bomb them back to the stone age but I honestly think that they are still there. There's nothing much a civilized people can say about a group of sub humans who will strap bombs on their children and themselves because they think that God would be pleased. But there is something that a civilized people can and should do.

I haven't seen that one yet, andyin, that's great!

Some of these nut jobs are going to get a hold of some real weapons of mass destruction (maybe even nukes if Iran has anything to say about it) and they WILL smuggle them into the U.S. If they get away with one they will bury it somewhere and keep smuggling them in until they figure they have enough or until they finally get caught, in either case they will then set them all off at once. Think about it, what if they get say 10 nukes into this country or 20....plant them in the 10 to 20 biggest cities......I believe this scenario will happen at some point in our not too distant future and I'm not sure we can do anything about it before it happens. After it happens will be left up to those of us who are still around I guess.

Frankly, the average American could careless. A nuke could go off in DC and people would be more interested in what Parris Hilton is doing in jail. The world is at war and for most folks their attitude is, "So what... not interested." It is a sorry state of affairs but true.

Pakistan Has been fooling west from the begining playing a dual role,they have harboured trained and supported these militiants from the begining,i wonder why doesnt west understands pakistan and its establishment is responsible and will continue to promote islamic extremists.

You know this may be a good time to build the wall promised to us in the 86 Kennedy bill. Mexico is a breeding ground for terrorism and a pipeline to undermine our security. If Bush would built it then the Islamofacists might not have an entry point.

I thought we were fighting them over there so we won't fight them over here?

Everything the Bush neo-cons touch turns to lead.

Sorry Orivon, but western imperialism in the mideast for the past couple of centuries are a big reason why they hate us over there. Sure, Wahhabism is a despicable death cult, but they're not coming at us because we have a free frolicing fun country. They hate us because post-colonial rule we still stick our grubby fingers into the region. We've supported every secular government possible, and the biggest thorn of all, we support their most hated enemy Israel. So don't fool yourself into thinking these big red targets were painted on our countries because we're such swell lovely people. We're now kicking a hornets' nest that we've been tossing small rocks at for decades.

If we would enforce the border we might actually have a chance of catching these people.

Don't worry, we're fighting them there so they won't come here. Oh, eh wait...

Once we start to question our government and the system of power we are all a part of, in my opinion, the terrorists are winning. They hate democracy and what we are, if we don't have one vision about what to do and stand behind it 100%, they are getting what they want.

It didn't matter what we did or do in the middle east. they are going to attack us no matter what. To those who say we should pull out of Iraq, if they can't attack us there, there will be nothing left for them to do except attack us here in the United States.

I live in San Diego and have ridden the fence on my bike, we can't keep uneducated peons out with that fence, a trained whacko we be over it and in the malls next week. Good luck all!

kids young as twelve carrying out suicide missions are not full of hate and evil by nature. They are kids.....its the older radicals that teach this crap is who we need to be targeting

Huh??? What about the 2001 Twin Towers, 1997 Fatwa by Osama, 1993 Trade Center attack, hi-jacked planes in the 70's and 80's remember Entebbe? The Israeli wars of the 60's on and on back even before the Palestine riots of 1929 and the massacre of Jews at the wall.

Brian Ross and ABC must be pleased that their propaganda campaign has so fully expunged the historical data banks from the minds of their collective viewer/reader base.

I guess since history and an objective perspective of the facts are not in lockstep with the Ross/ABC agenda it would be best if every body just repeats after me. Terrorist didn't exist before George W. Bush. No matter what it is it's W's fault. Blame Bush, Blame Bush, Blame Bush (come on everybody join in, its fun don't think or learn your history just join in) Blame Bush, Blame Bush, if anyone disagrees with you bring out the ad hominem attacks and use your pejoratives. Call them a brain dead Fox watcher or a dirty neo-con (it doesn't matter if you don't know how to define a neo-con it sounds bad) Blame Bush, Blame Bush...Come on everybody...Blame Bush...

WHOO HOO

It's complete crap, why would the Taliban want photos of the prospective bombers published before they carried out their attacks? This is just propaganda.

I don't know about you guys, but I am tired of the CIA funding terrorist operations across the world. Its time we recognize that every time one of these "alerts" is released our governments are trying to prepare is for something evil they are planning and most of all they want us to live in FEAR!

Blame George Bush? Oh, then why were these monsters in America for the Twin Towers when Bill was still the president? If what George Bush did in Iraq causes this type of thing, then what preceded 9-11? oH YEAH...CLINTON BOMBED IRAQ AND THE SUDAN.....

So what? We will wait for them and then waste them. Sure we will loose a few, we will surely get them.

The key is not to panic like chickens.

Wake up America.......Close the USA Border !!!!!!!!

Bush and the Democrat Congress won't do it !

To blame W for any attacks is missing the point. We have had over 20 attacks on us before W was even President. They just want to kill us. There were more attacks on us under Clinton than the present administration. Get the facts, don't be dumb.

The reasons we are being attacked my a SEGMENT of the Muslim world are:

1-Blind support of Israel, including the supply of weapons.

2- The presence of American troops in the Middle East.

And yes, if those 2 things were to change, I think there is a strong probability that we would no longer be a target.

Even if mushroom clouds appear over every major city in America, the Left will still never stand up and fight. What they will do is stand up with their "white flags" and wave them until the point at which they get shot.

War is coming home, prepare or die.

This report seems highly suspicious. Who is the supposed Pakistani journalist and is he working for the ISI to instill more faux terror. You believe everything you read? Anyone can stage any kind of photo op. Looks like another Paris Hilton moment. Yawn.

Think how many others there would be if we weren't killing them off in Iraq and Afganistan. Thank the Israelis as well, they keep taking these miscreants out as well. Oh wait, it is G.W. Bush's fault. Yeah, right.

Pffft. These brainwashed, child-killing pyschos will never make it anywhere near our homeland. Why? Becuase Americans are smarter now and can spot these islamofacist maniacs.

Did anyone READ the article?

The bombers are from Afghanistan NOT IRAQ. They are bombing Germany too...or want to. Is Germany in Iraq?

They are bombing because "those countries are in Afghanistan".

They would bomb even if we weren't in Iraq. So once again, blame it on Bush (who I hate) rears its head. READ the article before commenting.

Just send Jack Bauer over to Afghanistan, then Pakistan and then Iraq. At the rate that he kills people, it should only take him about 2 years to wipe out most of the extremists. :)

That doesn't make sense!?!?!?!

We're fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them over there!!!!!

Yes...The Taliban made the decision in 2007. Hey!!! What if we attack America? Abdul? What are you saying? We've never thought of that before...what a genius.

Bin Laden should have been priority one for this government after 911. The smoke and mirrors that the Bush administration used to fool the less intelligent majority of Americans that somehow Saddam and Iraq were responsible for the attack (carried out by our friends, the Saudis), and all of a sudden, capturing Bin Laden isn't that important. The responsibility is ours for not critically thinking at that all important time, instead relying on the lies told by the current administration.

I question the timing, of course. This is timed to help the Bush Administration divert attention away from the Nifong disbarment, & NBC's exclusive interviews with Prince Harry & William. Obviously.
Oh, and...there is no terrorist threat?

Oh my,
The loonies are out of the wards again!
It's Bush again give us a break.
The congress that is in power today has brought this on to us. Oh, Wait the Dems will make nice and all will be fine again in Oz. Not to get worried. Oh,Wait they have already made nice to them so how can this be happening?

Isn't it interesting that Bush gets no credit what so ever... NONE... for thwarting numerous terror attacks in the US since 9/11... but as soon as (or even before as evidenced here) there is an attack... it will be Bush's fault. Can somebody explain that to me?

Yes, the terrorists had their aim on us before Bush took office. Now however, the bulls eye has gotten way larger. As long as there is a strong US military presence in that region, there will be hatred towards the west. Bush exacerbated the whole situation by sending thousands of US troops to Iraq.

NOW what are the Dems going to do? How can they keep up the 'hate Bush' chant with people being blown up in Chicago? Too bad Reed and Pelosi didn't take any time to plan for this contingency, seems they only have had time to try and undermine an already lame duck. God but these people are morons, putting themselves and their parties before the safty of the citizens who pay them to protect them.

Thank God we have Dubya.

Oh no - the islamokazis are coming to my town!!

Where's my duct tape?

So much for fighting them there or we'll have to fight them at home; they've always been intending to come here after us anyway. Now there are more of them than before thanks to Bush's War.

Think of it: 500,000 Iraqis dead due to the war and 4,000,000 who've had to leave their homes. That's a lot of brothers, sisters, dads, and kids who have new reasons to hate us.

No surprise that some of them will try to come here.

Everyone forgets that Clinton was in the White when they(terrorist)planted the first bomb and he did nothing. But those terrorist better watch out for the US citizens. Every other household in America has a gun or two.

What a bunch of ignorant fools, that think that Bush started the fundamentalist wacko's. If they haven't attacked the US since 9/11 you can thank Bush, for holding them back. What about the Germans and the British and the Canadians! WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!

What does Clarke mean by "slip through the net". They can just walk across the border and do what they want.

Well, its not like they can actually get into the country...

President Bush will eventually be recognized for the selfless leadership he has shown. He never took polls to determine where he should take vacation. He hasn't used slick political techniques, such as "triangulation". He is truly a great president who will most likely replace the pretender "JFK" on the half-dollar someday. Those who attack him are simpletons, who are still throwing tantrums for the 2000 election.

Bin Laden funded/ordered attacks on US properties (US Emabssy in Nairobi, USS Cole, et al) during the Clinton presidency.

Nice going Clinton.

I really hate to bring you left wingers back to reality from your never never land-like perspective on reality, but 9/11 was planned during the Clinton administration so saying that fairy tale inspired psychopaths hate us because of W is simply proving how out of touch you are with reality (and the ability to put 2 and 2 together).

The nutjobs hated us before W (shock!!!) and they will hate us tomorrow - appeasement won't solve the problem, they can smell weakness the way a shark smells blood in the water.

The ONLY way to defeat this threat against our way of life is to take it to the enemy, not to deny the war even exists in the first place (a la Edwards' bumper sticker comment.)

It's us or them...and the sooner you bleeding heart liberals wake up and join the real world, the sooner we can fight as a united front instead of berating W to get votes in 2008, weakening our overall position.

Nice going W.

ME: Are Rick and Brandon insane? Because of our declaring war on those who declared war on us BY THE SAME METHOD on 9/11, we are to blame for any jihadi suicide bombers that come to our lands and slaughter our sisters, brother, husbands wives and fellow citizens? That makes Beslan Russia's fault, right? Is there no end to the equivocation some will apply to mass-murdering terrorists to justify the unjustifiable?

It takes insane people to run around the labyrinthes of their minds to come to the conclusion that suicide bombers and jihadis are what we deserve as a nation and a people. NO civilized society deserves that! It is the same kind of insanity Islamists use to burn down schools, beat and "honor kill" women, and to strap on explosives and blow up dozens of children, even MUSLIM children, in the name of justice and in the name of their god. And they do it to us, Rick and Brandon say, because we have it coming. We deserve it.

I say lobotomies should make a comeback.

History repeats it self from those who won't learn from it - it was a long war against the Barbery Pirates who terrorized shipage for the civilized world - until the U.S. subdued them for the benefit of the entire civilized world. God helping we'll thump these thugs again. Take heart countrymen - we must rise to meet the crises of our generation - as our forefathers did in there's. It cost them much then, we must pay now for our children's freedom. Ante Up!

You don't really believe this crock, do you? LMAO at all you scaredy-cats!

Liberals don't get it. These fanatics want to wipe us off the face of the earth. They have been after us since 1979 when they took over the Iranian embassy.

People are proclaiming "the entire world is against us". Riddle me this then. Why did Germany elect a more conservative, pro-American leader? Why did France elect a more conservative, pro-American leader? Why is Tony Blair's replacement likely to be even more pro-American? A lot of the everyday people around the world have started to wake up to the fact that Muslim extremists are threatening their way of life.

Rick,
Islamic Terrorists have been blowing people up since the Carter Administration. To blame Bush shows your complete ignorance of history. Yes, Jimmy Carter was a president before he built house. At least he found something he is good @. Go back to commenting on the Paris Hilton.

Wow, Tony, put down the pipe and get a grip on reality.

Why I cannot believe how clueless the sheeple really are. Those of you who feel so confident that this is a muslim or islamic plot should go work for your government for a while. You will then see just how insidious this whole war on terror really is. There is no war on terror. This is manufactured and crafted by the US of A. We instigated it, purposefully and we fan the fires, purposefully. Innocent civilians are not a concern for those seeking to further an agenda.

"I have always said that we, here in America, have been too lucky for too long to avoid the death squads that we see and hear about in the barbarian world"

Luck? I don't think so. A lot of hard work by people dedicated to protecting their country is more likely. The left whines about how Bush is stomping all over our rights. Well, nobody has stomped on mine or anyone else I know. If we are too stupid or too tied to legal abstractions to keep ourselves alive then perhaps we are "just too dumb to live". Far as I'm concerned, Bush still has a lot more leeway when it comes to stopping these mass murderers. I just hope that if they do get to us that the victims will be those who worried more about terrorists rights than they did about innocent Americans.

Believing this stuff will happen is like believing the Boogey Man is hiding under your bed.

Please give it a rest already.

By the way, W did not start it but he certainly didn't make it any better - this is simply blowback from our (lack of) intelligence agencies.

let's make sure we don't do any racial profiling though. we wouldn't want to offend any of the muslim extremsists coming here to kill us.

Thank you Bill Clinton!!! The consequences of bombing a baby asprin factory and a vacant terroist training camp. Remember that first World Trade Center bombing? Or the US embassy bombing? How about the Cole? If you had taken care of business then, we'd have finished this mess 4 years ago.

The war in Iraq has made us less safe: it has created more terrorists, wasted our military in a policing effort, killed thousands of our troops, and drained billions of our tax dollars.

Bush lied americans died. no blood for oil!..idiots

These losers haven't been able to hit us since 9/11. What a bunch of dolts. Stop wasting our time with these headlines. It's been 6 years. Notify me when they actually succeed.

this so called war could of been done as soon as it started,if rumy would of let the generals run it,where's rumy and his buddys now?
